The Pentagon is preparing to resume full ground operations alongside Kurdish partners in northern Syria, officials said Tuesday, a move that risks further inflaming relations with NATO ally Turkey, which has threatened a ground assault in retaliation.

About 900 U.S. troops are deployed to Syria, most of them sharing bases with SDF personnel in the north. Those partner forces, Buccino said, are integral “to the ongoing effort to keep an ISIS resurgence at bay.” Among its responsibilities, the SDF oversees the al-Hol refugee camp, where tens of thousands of people — many of them the families of Islamic State militants — live in squalid conditions, unable to return to their home countries.

The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Mark A. Milley, spoke Nov. 23 with his Turkish counterpart, Gen. Yasar Guler. By then, Turkish forces had launched more than 100 air, drone and artillery strikes into northern Syria.

Do not stand in front of Turkish soldiers or you will be crushed like bugs!

Withdraw American soldiers or your soldiers will die with terrorists.

The US is looking for war on that region.

'Partners'... President Ronald Reagan called the US backed, sponsored and trained mujahideen 'freedom fighters'... Also this will backfire... eventually.

Beware the destruction of Damascus

Turkey bombed terrorist targets in accordance with the UN Charter. As long as your attacks do not stop, Turkey will crush your head. Turkey will protect its own border security in spite of its NATO ally America.

Эрдоганнище, давай уже хватит с тебя. Повластвовал, пусть другие поработают.

USA in syria for stealing syrian oil. and these Terrorist PKK members guarding these oil fields. western media never tell you truth. and Russia and Turkish army defeat ISIS not Terrorist PKK. Have you forgotten how Russia destroyed cities in Syria and filled ISIS in Idlib?

Biden taking us to war, that figures.

Awesome.

Единственная истинная причина незаконного американского присутствия в Сирии 🇸🇾 - это лишить сирийский народ его нефти. не иметь курдов в качестве союзников. Американская пропаганда во всей красе.

Why is the US allowed to fight in Syria but Putin is the devil when attacking Ukraine?

You really should learn to leave people alone and mind your own business

Turkey is only a Nato Allie because we needed them in the 1960s so we could place nukes there. We don’t need them anymore

Our Kurdish allies had more to do with defeating ISIS than all of other allies combined. Then Trump sold them down the river to placate his fellow authoritarian Erdogan.

I'll say one thing about Biden - he doesn't let the feelings of 'strongmen' dictate his foreign policy.

Criminal!
